He then let everyone know of all of the great real estate available in the Morgantown area and - whether you were buying or selling - things were looking pretty good. He was concerned that people tuning into the national broadcasts might create a self - fulfilling prophecy. I also know of several contractors in this area who have talked about how well their businesses are doing. Reporting from the field... Go Morgantown, WV!

A "job" is like a withering plant, while a "career" is like a blooming garden. It's easy to become fixated on our work environment today, while neglecting to focus on opportunities for tomorrow. Complacency dries our psyche, but ambition uplifts. I think it's time to get pruning. Excellent analogy. A “job” is like a withering plant, while a “career” is like a blooming garden.
